The abundances of the naturally occurring isotopes of neon

Neon (10Ne) possesses three stable isotopes: 20
Ne
, 21
Ne
, and 22
Ne
. In addition, 17 radioactive isotopes have been discovered, ranging from 15
Ne
to 34
Ne
, all short-lived. The longest-lived is 24
Ne
with a half-life of 3.38(2) min. All others are under a minute, most under a second. The least stable is 15
Ne
with a half-life of 770(300) ys (7.7(3.0)×10−22 s). See isotopes of carbon for notes about the measurement. Light radioactive neon isotopes usually decay to fluorine or oxygen, while heavier ones decay to sodium.
